Patty, I think the whole process re these africans is a time consuming and worth it.
It takes a lot of $$ to go to Africa. Lots of $$ to get the dogs back here and vetted.
Its a long process, but will be worth it when we have new genes to add to the b's lines.
Very exciting time for us all.
Thanks Patty for your interest. Hugs my unmet friend.
Pretty Miss Kayla!

Sorry Maya i certainly wasnt meaning you - we all have our personal preferences of which we want to live with - i have too - i was referring more to breeders and judges who sort of crinkle their nose and look a bit distainful if you mention b/w or brindles.
Like you - i love Tris - especially if they are marked as well as your girl.
-
Ah, ok. Didnt want to come across as though i was saying anything but r/w and tri i dont like lol
I think the colour thing happens with most breeds as far as judging goes. I have an apricot pug - many judges wouldnt give him a second look (and have said so - they just say they dont like the colour/dont think it should be recognised) so we havent shown him much. The same with our chocolate labs, we pick our judges carefully!
I know a friend who has dobes that she shows very occassionally and she said its the same sometimes with the brown ones (not sure if theres a correct name for them!!l). Its sad that judges cant see past colour sometimes…

I personally prefer R/W but it doesn't mean I don't appreciate other colours, construction is more important than colour.
There's a certain little B/W bitch that lives very near to me and I have loved her from the first time I ever saw her! Probably the same one as Elscodoberman's mum!
-
She is truly a beautiful B. Very lucky family back in Sweden. I guess I should way in on my favorite color, of course Brindle is up there as #1 and if I get another one day…I want a red/white little princess..dark red..beautiful..
-
I have to say that in my humble opinion, photo's do not do the 'non reds' justice!
Having seen Tri's in the flesh, there is a real depth to the colour that is not usually born out in 2D and I would have to assume the same for Black and White's.

i can feel i might get talked into having one sometime in the future…
Hmmm, I can smell weakness! Must go off and devise a cunning plan!
-
LOL. I think by this time next year i will have enough to keep me occupied! i suppose one of each colour would be good - next time john asks what i want for my 40th birthday present i will have an answer already prepared….

And she is a good girl most of the time, for a Basenji; now she is getting over the Kevin stage. (Honestly, they do get over it. Eventually).

I think you might! Hope it works out well for you, it's an exciting time.

Miss Kayla is beautiful, well done!
-
Beautiful girl!
-
I love this bitch! She has a pretty head, graceful neck, level topline, nice tailset with shelf, and lovely angulation front and rear. Someone in Sweden is a very lucky person to be getting this girl. What is her registered name?
-
What a lovely girl!

"Kayla" is Khani's Midnight Star
Sire is Khani's Causing A ComMOtion
Dam is Am CH Khani's Written In The StarsKayla is sweet and cuddly and the biggest tail-wagger there is….
I never have to worry about her bolting out of a crate becuase she falls in the back wagging her tail and putting her ears back.
Sweet silly girl! -
She is gorgeous! Maybe she needs to live in Florida…......Sweden is awfully cold.
I used to think black basenjis were 'almost like basenjis' till I got one (a rescue). One day I looked at him and thought, Oh my goodness, he is gorgeous!!! His coat glowed almost blue-black and he was very elegant. A basenji in a tuxedo. At almost 14, he is the Cary Grant of our little basenji group, all the girl pups adore him.

I had a B/W female that all the males loved. She was a real trooper too! They're beautiful!

Pretty little gal - nice wins!

I am thinking that Sophie wouldn't be too happy if Miss Kay-Kay detoured and stayed somewhere else!
They have been waiting over a year for a girl… and still have two more months!
